@NCDemParty Your party kicked them out and took away the benefits of those who refused to take the COVID vaccine. You care nothing about our military.

Our service members and their families are the heart of this state, and we’re fighting to make sure they have the benefits they have earned. Thank you for your service. 🇺🇸

@jemelehill Democrats say they fear voter fraud from Republicans, yet they refuse to ensure voter fraud doesn’t happen.

Let me make sure I have my ID on me when I go to pick up this Chipotle.

@RoyCooperNC With your past record, are you seriously going to post this?

As Attorney General and Governor, I fought to make North Carolina safer and more prosperous. I will continue that mission as your Senator.

@DreamAmerica_ We’re a Republic, not a democracy. It’s amazing the ignorance of people on here. They don’t even realize that if that happened,only a very few states would control our elections. There’s a reason we have the Electoral College.

PETE BUTTIGIEG: "What if we selected our President by letting the person who got the most votes take the office, instead of the Electoral College?"

@ForwardCarolina That’s why we’re one of the top growing states in the nation. Thank goodness we’re not controlled by liberal Democrats. We’d be a rat hole like California or New York. Ya know, the places where people are fleeing to come here.

This here is probably the single most important thing for anyone to understand about North Carolina's state government. Our state legislature - the North Carolina General Assembly - writes every single law, every budget, nearly every regulation, and makes the overwhelming majority of personnel appointments in our state. Taxes? The state legislature. Water discharge regulations? The state legislature. Voter registration? The state legislature. School standards? The state legislature. Road construction? The state legislature. Drawing election districts? The state legislature. Other state agencies may carry out and perform the statutes and rules the state legislature sets down, but it's always the state legislature that calls the tune. After all, they write the laws - not the Governor, not the Attorney General, not the courts. Republicans have held complete and unbroken majority (often supermajority) control of the North Carolina state legislature for the last 15 years straight, because they gerrymandered the election maps to ensure they'll never lose. How are they doing?

@OS_Beaver So you take some schools from other G6 conferences and put them in another G6 conference and you think it becomes a P4 conference. Sorry, doesn’t work that way.

Pac-12 nears big swing to regain Autonomy and Power Five status! 🌊

@RoyCooperNC Who’s your friends Roy?

Rising gas prices are hurting North Carolinians’ wallets, especially for our farmers. bizjournals.com/triangle/news/…

@abreezeclayton Some of the signs used today were: F*CK ICE!!! Defeat Trump's Agenda Trump is a N*ZI ICE OUT!!! Protect trans kids Refuse fascism This was never about education or the kids! It was held on the Communist’s May Day for a reason. 700,000 kids missed school for this.

at least someone is funding teachers bc the state sure as hell ain’t

@Anita_Earls If Democrats had a trillion dollars a year for education they still would say they needed more.

Despite the state constitutional guarantee of a sound basic public education, our schools in North Carolina are severely under-resourced, with devastating impacts for students and teachers.

@jjb808 @somanysigns444 @NC_Governor The Democrats said the lottery would solve all of North Carolina’s education budget problems. Shouldn’t matter who holds the purse strings.

@Charles237111 @somanysigns444 @NC_Governor The legislature holds the state purse strings.

Last month I met with a first-grade teacher who moved here from South Carolina at the start of her career because North Carolinaused to pay our teachers better. Now, she spends $200 to $300 of her own money on her students at the beginning of the school year to make sure they have what they need in the classroom. North Carolina has failed to keep up, and that’s making her think of moving back home. South Carolina spends $5,500 more on each school child than we do here in North Carolina – equivalent to about $8 billion more than we invest in K-12. My budget gives all teachers a deserved pay raise, brings back master’s pay for veteran teachers, and provides teachers with a school supply stipend. Let’s make smart investments to right this wrong.

@newsobserver Communists from around the world will be happy that their day was chosen for this.

Yes, the NC teacher march is disruptive. That’s kind of the point | Opinion newsobserver.com/opinion/articl…

@somanysigns444 @NC_Governor The governor appoints 5 of the 9 members of the commission. The governorship has been occupied by a Democrat in all but 4 of those years since 2010.

@Charles237111 @NC_Governor The Republican majority has been in place in the NC General Assembly since 2010 Charles.

@DeborahRossNC Remember when the highest national average gasoline price during Joe Biden’s presidency was about $5.07 per gallon? Were you concerned then? Remember when he depleted our national oil reserves to try to stop the rising prices? Remember those days?

Gas prices just hit a four-year high, while costs from groceries to housing and health care keep rising. Hardworking Americans deserve better than Donald Trump’s reckless policies.

@ForwardCarolina When you hear, “there’s not enough money to pay our teachers,” just remember that since its inception in 2006, the “education” lottery has generated more than $12 billion for education. How much of that money actually went to education?

Whenever you hear "there's not enough money to pay our teachers," just remember that the leaders of the North Carolina state legislature forked over half a billion dollars of our tax money to a private venture capital fund run by a group of bank and pharma CEOs barely 3 years ago. NC taxpayers get 0% equity on projects our money funds. No transparency, but plenty of politicians' hands in the pot. Projects just too risky for private investors - but just fine for taxpayer money!

@RepDeborahRoss Since its inception in 2006, the lottery has generated more than $12 billion for education. Why should any school district be concerned about making cuts? Sounds like an awful lot of waste going on. Please explain how there’s even any money problem.

I am standing in full solidarity with the thousands of NC teachers marching for fair pay and proper school funding. Some facts: - NC is 50th in public school funding - NC is 46th in teacher pay - Wake County faces $16M in cuts this year Today, our educators are putting everything on the line to ensure every student gets the resources they deserve.

@Kevin_Coulter_1 Since its inception in 2006, the lottery has generated more than $12 billion for education. Why should there even be a money problem?

The billionaire class of Art Pope/Charles Koch have donated millions to harm public schools in North Carolina. Why? They want our public schools to be privatized. Mark Harris is like the Pope puppets and work for the billionaire class. #nced #ncpol #ncleg

@NC_Governor North Carolinians spent $5.38 billion on the “education” lottery in the 2023-24 fiscal year. This lottery that was passed in the dark of night by the Dems has done everything but pay for education. And you’re wanting NC taxpayers to fork out more.

North Carolina needs a budget that values our students and their teachers.

@ABC11_WTVD Thank goodness Stein found a way to spend more taxpayer’s money. I was afraid he wouldn’t have time to do that since he spends so much time at BBQ joints.
